"What a curious thing," said Alice
"One might easily lose one's balance,"
As she walked through the labyrinthine tangles
Of the sea-risen city's impossible angles
...and so Alice meets Howard Phillips Lovecraft in the nightmare corpse-city of R'lyeh, and there they discuss nonsense & meaninglessness, until interrupted by... Certain Entities of an Unusual Nature...
Bringing together the imaginative worlds of H P Lovecraft and Lewis Carroll, Alice at R'lyeh explores the black seas of infinity, the dangers of adding two and two, and the advantages of being fictional.
